How Could I Ask For More

There’s nothing like the warmth of a summer afternoon
Waking to the sunlight, being cradled by the moon
Catching fireflies at night
Building castles in the sand
Kissing Mama’s face goodnight
And holding Daddy’s hand
Thank you Lord, how could I ask for more
Running barefoot through the grass
A little hide and go seek
Being so in love, that you can hardly eat
Dancing in the dark, when there’s no one else around
Being bundled 'neath the covers, watching snow
Fall to the ground
Thank you Lord, how could I ask for more
So many things I thought would bring me happiness
Some dreams that are realities today
Such an irony of things that mean the most to me
Are the memories that I’ve made along the way
So if there’s anything I’ve learned
From this journey I am on
Simple truce will keep you going
Simple love will keep you strong
Cause there are questions without answers
And flames that never die
And heartaches we go through are often blessings in disguise
So thank you Lord, How thank you Lord
How could I ask for more
